We performed a comparison between Elastic Observability and Nagios Core based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two IT Infrastructure Monitoring solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."We use AppDynamics and Elastic. The reason why we're using Elastic APM is because of the license count. It's very favorable compared to AppDynamics. It's inexpensive; it's economical."
"The architecture and system's stability are simple."
"For full stack observability, Elastic is the best tool compared with any other tool ."
"Elastic Observability significantly improves incident response time by providing quick access to logs and data across various sources. For instance, searching for specific keywords in logs spanning over a month from multiple data sources can be completed within seconds."
"The most valuable feature of Elastic Observability is the text search."
"The price is very less expensive compared to the other solutions."
"The solution allows us to dig deep into data."
"It's easy to deploy, and it's very flexible."
"Other products are good but from the configuration point of view Nagios is really very lightweight. The price is really good in my opinion. Another important thing is that my Nagios engine still works with Dual core 8GB ram for the last 10 years."
"It is fairly easy to set up, and we can monitor pretty much everything we want to."
"The most valuable feature of Nagios Core is the ability to check the availability of the server for network connectivity. Additionally, the interface is good."
"The most valuable features are the reports and the way it generates the report in a graphical manner."
"Provides timely notifications."
"The application performance monitoring feature is valuable."
"The most valuable feature of Nagios Core is it allows us to develop and add as many plugins as we want."
"Nagios Core is very configurable. Whatever you want, you can do it."
"The tool's scalability involves a more complex implementation process. It requires careful calculations to determine the number of nodes needed, the specifications of each node, and the configuration of hot, warm, and cold zones for data storage. Additionally, managing log retention policies adds further complexity. The solution's pricing also needs to be cheaper."
"The solution needs to use more AI. Once the product onboards AI, users would more effectively be able to track endpoints for specific messages."
"Elastic Observability is an excellent product for monitoring and visibility, but it lacks predictive analytics. Most solutions are aligned with the AIOps requirements, but this piece is missing in Elastic and should be included."
"The solution would be better if it was capable of more automation, especially in a monitoring capacity or for the response to abnormalities."
"There could be more low-code features included in the product."
"They need more skills in the market. There are not enough skills in the market. It is not pervasive enough on the market, in my opinion. In other words, there isn't a big enough user base."
"The price is the only issue in the solution. It can be made better and cheaper."
"The cost must be made more transparent."
"The dashboard and monitoring features could be improved."
"The UI is a little outdated and graphics could be displayed in a better way."
"I would like to see more training videos."
"The core version is no match for the XI version."
"I would like to see a sensor that shows the traffic of a user and what they're doing on the network."
"The tool needs to improve the integrations."
"It would be nice if the company offered a sales or contract manager that was dedicated to our company so that we would have some sort of link to Nagios, and if we had issues or questions, we'd be able to contact them directly."
"The mapping is a little hard."
